Chapter 160

160 Better days ahead .

Lyla I let out the breath | held as soon as | put enough distance betweenand Ramscy .

Leaning against the wall outside the pack house , | took deep , restorative breaths to calm my racing heart .

Nymeris stirred within, growling with approval .

Well done , Lyla .

| thought you were going to crack under that steely gaze .

The exact words | need , | hissed , pushing down to the base of the wall, letting the tension drain from my body .

My heart was still pounding , and my palms felt clammy .

All of this happened because of you .

If you hadnt gone to Ramsey , acting like ... | trailed off , unable to finish the words .

A bitch ? A slut ? Nymeris finished , Is that the new nyou want to call yourself ? | groaned , pushing myself

to my feet .

That was close , Nymeris .

Its okay if Im freaking out .

| muttered under my breath .

Just tell him it was you , Lyla .

Whats the worst that can happen that hasnt happened before ? You heard what he said to the High priestess .

Hes looking for you ; he didnt sound like he will harm you when he sees you .

Hes our mate , Lyla ... how many times do | have to say this .

I scoffed .

You dont know Ramsey like | do, Nymeris .

You just met him .

And youve known him since forever ? she retorted .

Lyla ... you have this bad habit of picking through someones words and hearing whatever suits your mood , and

then you self sabotage and act like the victim .

Ramsey is a nice person , better than your Nathan .

| opened my mouth several times , too shocked to make a sentence .

Ramsey is nicer than Nathan ? Yes ! she replied .

Nathan bears grudges and looks like the kind of person that would remind you every day of your life , while

Ramsey is only cold on the exterior .

Hes a sweet man .

Oh, please ! | hissed .

You dont have to say nice words about him to get in bed with him .

Mate or not , Im not ready to trust him , Nymeris .

Im speaking from experience and another reminder : Nathan is the person in our life now .

Hes my boyfriend .

So, please dont confuse it and forget yourself .

Ramsey has a fiancée already .

Shes practically his mate and wife .

You cant tellwhat to do, Lyla .

The only instructions | would take from you are regarding changing my form or not .

Otherwise , youre always mistaken .

Wrong about your emotions , intuitions and sometimes , | wonder if youre even the Moonsinger .

You have bad taste in everything , including men .

Getting roasted by my wolf wasnt what Id envisioned .

It was far from it .

For sreason , Nymeris wasnt scared to tellexactly how she felt .

She practically has no filter .

11:05 100 Better day | didnt wait for her to finish .

| disconnected from her immediately , breathing in the mid morning breeze to calm the angry tremors teasing at

the edge of my mind .

| also pushed the lingering sensation of Ramseys presence out of my mind .

A few minutes later, | arrived at the training ground .

The whole place buzzed with activity .

Warriors sparred in pairs while others practised forms .

under the watchful eyes of the training instructor .

| hovered at the edge of the ground , my eyes following each trainee .

Despite still feeling sore from todays fighting and barely resting afterwards , | felt a strange itch -a restless need

to do something physical .

However , | had arrived late , and no one was admitted .

to the training ground after the morning drills .

Resigning to my fate .

| leaned against the dwarf fence and continued watching them, trying to store their tactics in my head .

| was so engrossed in it that | didnt notice someone talking tountil a shadow fell before, blocking out the

morning sun .

When | looked up , it was the training instructor .

He was a burly Gamma with greying hair and a gravelly voice .

Moonsinger ? He looked surprised and awkward at the st.

| cringed at the word Moonsinger but maintained a polite smile .

Just Lyla would do , Gamma Theo, | said quietly , straightening my spine and giving him my hands to shake Oh !

he nodded , cleaning his palms on his trainers before shaking my hand lightly .

Its just that | dont know what title to give you yet .

Anyways , Im surprised to see you here .

| was told you went into a semi coma up until yesterday , but you dont look like you were sick .

Tellabout it, | chuckled .

| think its the genetics .

| always look this good whenever | recover from any illness .

He didnt believe.

| could see it in his eyes , but he simply nodded .

Thats a relief, then .

Are you feeling better now ? Better than | have in the 23 years of my life .

Good ! he sighed with relief .

| was so worried wed pushed too hard on you last t.

Alpha Ramsey threatened to punish us ... Ramsey | mean , Alpha Ramsey threatened you ? Why ? He said | let

you spar with someone with more advanced skills than you .

As if | didnt spar with him first ... | scoffed under my breath .

Im so sorry about that, | said .

Dont worry , it wasnt your fault .

| wasnt feeling great that day , but | am now , completely fine .

| hesitated , then added .

| know Im late for todays training , and its almost done , but ... could | join ? What ? his eyes widened with shock

Im sorry , but | cannot allow that .

You just recovered .

1 11:56 Better days ah What ? his eyes widened with shock .

Im sorry , but | cannot allow that .

You just recovered .

| dont want to be the one who has to explain to that young priestess why youre passed out on my field again .

She almost fought with| swallowed the laughter that bubbled to my throat at the picture of Nanny trying to

fight this giant standing in front of.

| promise .

| said solemnly .

The moment | feel any discomfort, Ill step back .

Please ... He shook his head .

Im sorry ... | cant ... | pouted my lips , trying to make a cute face at him human girls do this a lot ,, and it always

works Please ! | drawled with an unnatural high pitched tone .

| promise to be careful .

Just for a few minute .

| need to exercise my body a bit .

It feels stiff from lying in one position for a long t.

He stared atfor a few seconds before he nodded with a grunt .

Im only doing this because youre the nicest woman Ive ever seen .

But only light drills .

If | see you wavering , youre out .

Thank you ! | raised my hands , indicating for him to pickGamma Lycans was practically giant physically .

Most of them grow as tall as 67 or more .

He pickedup like | weighed nothing and broughtto the other side of the dwarf fence .

| quickly ran to the small stall with their training safety kits ,, and a moment later , | was ready .

Watch carefully Gamma Theo began by demonstrating intermediate defensive moves since | already knew a lot

of basic defensive moves .

| watched him, taking note of all his movements .

Keep your stance firm but flexible , he instructed , correcting my posture by nudging my with his boot .

Good .

Now , step and strike .

knee | executed all the defence moves with a fluidity , which surprised.

It was as if my body was the one that remembered all the techniques and not my brain, and all my strikes were

perfect .

After a few more rounds of practice with him , he pairedwith a sparring partner a broad shouldered warrior

with years of experience training with newbies , according to the Gamma .

The warrior ctoward, a friendly smile on his face .

Dont hold back , he teased .

Wouldnt dream of it, | replied , my grin matching his .

The sparring began , and the moment the warrior made his first move , | reacted instinctively , sidestepping

effortlessly and countered with a punch of my own , my knuckles grazing his shoulder with enough force to make

him stagger back a step .

The other warriors training paused in their drills to watch ; their eyes had gone round with 30 160 Better days

ahead .

+53 The other warriors training paused in their drills to watch ; their eyes had gone round with disbelief as |

moved with speed and a precision that only long twarriors could .

My footwork was flawless ; my strikes were powerful yet controlled .

Every move | made was calculated as though Id been training for years .

When the match ended with the warrior on the ground , panting and grinning up at, Gamma Theo

approached ; he looked stunned .

How did you ... he began , then caught himself .

Where did that cfrom ? Where did you learn to move like that ? Why didnt you show these the other day ?

he asked , half accusatory , half impressed .

| shrugged , wiping sweat from my brow , but | was trying to cup with a quick explanation .

My moves , too , had surprised.

| used to train back at my pack .

Twice a day with the Alpha .

| guess it stuck , and last t, | was sick .

Gamma Theo nodded slowly , though his expression suggested he wasnt entirely convinced .

Well, this is so impressive .

Keep it up .

When the training session ended , | walked back to the pack house feeling invigorated , alive in a way | hadnt felt

before .

My muscles that should have been sore felt strong , and if anything , it was as if the training had given me

several bouts of energy , and my mind was clearer than it had been in days .

Thinking about everything that had changed in less than 24 hours , | knew better days were ahead .
